Welcome to my heart

Welcome to my heart

A Poem by Rya May

Wecome to my Heart

 

I tried not to love you.

Not to see a future where there was you and me.

But as I tired it just became clearer,

That you are meant for me.

I couldn’t believe I could really love you forever,

Why?

Hollywood.

Parents.

Friends.

Life.

Everything has taught me to wait.

Even myself.

I am in fact a living contradiction to what I always thought was true.

You called my bluff.

I didn’t want to believe it.

I was afraid that it was the usual

Immature love,

Unpolished.

Needy.

But somehow,

By some stroke of divine love.

I found you.

Someone I want to spend forever with.

I have said it for the first time.

I expect to be with you forever.

I’m scared.

Since we’ve gone out I’ve prepared myself to break up.

And here I am.

I am oh so scared.

Now I can get hurt.

Even when I knew I loved you,

I still had a chance to walk out unscathed,

Because I was prepared for it to end.

Now I am not.

Now if it ends I’ll be shocked.

Hurt.

I have opened myself up to pain.

My chest feels raw and heavy,

Yet maybe it’s light.

It feels different,

I am sure it was not light before.

So that must be it.

My chest is lighter.

All because of you.

And it can be torn by you now.

I am at your mercy.

Last time this happened.

I was broken beyond repair.

I pray.

I have made the right choice.

I have decided to give myself to you.

I have no intention of loving another.

I have never told you that before.

Do not shy away now,

That I have made the same choice.

I love you.

Like I have never loved before.

You are my life.

And so it only seems fitting I share it with you.

Welcome to my heart.

Please wipe your feet.

Less is more in this place.

Thank you.

wow, i think i understand where you coming from, i feel the same thing sometimes toward the girl i'm dating. the feeling of uncertain, always feeling like the break up is right around the corner, its kind of a trust thing. It happens in every relationship, and all i did was just relax. its life, ya know? its not always meant to be perfect or right, life is meant to be wrong but then we, as individuals, find the right. ya know? But i really liked what you wrote, I loved that "welcome to my heart, please wipe your feet." I liked that, good work tho.
